- Part 1:
- We must be vigilant, we
must be diligent, American Patrol !
Arms for the army, ships for the navy, Let this be our
goal !
- We must be vigilant, we
must be diligent, American Patrol !
Protect our shore-line to the door-line, Of every native
soul !
-
- Part 2:
- We need your solidarity,
Or else divided we will fall.
Protect the popularity, Of peace and happiness for all.
Behind our cause we must keep rallying, Let there be no
dilly-dallying,
Let there be no shilly-shallying ! Hark to Freedom's call
!
